Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"I'm going to stay in my hometown in Shandong and look for your damn father. I really can't stay in your house any longer. You sent my grandson away, and even drove my eldest grandson away because of you. What's the point of me staying here?"

"Okay, my mother, the third brother and his wife are here. Who will care about you if you go back? Don't you think I'm an eyesore? I'm leaving now." After saying that, he put on his military uniform and left.

Zhao Shanhe went home and started drinking with his third uncle and two younger brothers. Xu Damao also came following the smell of alcohol. To be honest, no one would feel happy to be scolded by his second uncle for no reason.

"Uncle San, what's wrong? Why is Big Brother like this after returning?"

"Okay, Shanhai, I'm fine, I just want to drink." Zhao Shanhai obviously didn't believe it, and then looked at his uncle.

"Your second uncle gave your brother a lecture, blaming your eldest brother for sending you all to the factory instead of to the countryside, and saying that your brother abused his power."

"Brother, this~"

"Okay, let's stop talking and drink."

"Shanhe, let's just forget about your Third Aunt and I going to the factory. We'll be back tomorrow."

"Uncle San, let Uncle Er say whatever he wants. I have arranged everything for you. Don't think too much. Uncle Er is Uncle Er, and you are you. Just stay here and stay.

Even if I were given a chance to choose, I would still arrange for my younger brothers and sisters to work in the factory. I can’t bear to watch them suffer. This is my inherent bias.”

"Yes, Shanhe, I support you. People are always divided into close and distant ones. If you don't help your own people, then what's the point of being an official? Are you going to help Shazhu?"

"Da Mao, I think you should live with Sha Zhu soon. You can't talk about Sha Zhu without him."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, as if that was the case. Xu Damao really couldn't stop talking about Sha Zhu.

"Grandma, I wish I could kill him."

"Okay, Damao, don't get excited, it's just a joke."

"Speaking of Sha Zhu, Shanhe is scared of you. Now, no matter how I provoke Sha Zhu in the factory, he ignores me. He would beat me up in the morning."

"Brother Damao, why are you still such a jerk? It would be bad if Shazhu didn't beat you up."

"Shanhu, you don't know, we have been fighting since we were young. Now he doesn't talk back or fight back. I'm really a little uncomfortable with it."

"Da Mao, this proves that Sha Zhu has grown up. He made a mistake in the first place. If he makes another mistake, he will be fired. The fact that he can endure this shows that he has a family and responsibilities in his heart. I think you don't have any deep hatred with him, so why do you have to hold on to it?"

"Actually, I don't know. Logically, the old deaf man is dead, and the eldest uncle has stepped down for many years. He is now humble. There is no need for me and Sha Zhu to be together, but I get angry when I see Sha Zhu's face."

"Maybe Sha Zhu will get angry when he sees your face. Your son Xu Sheng is now fighting with He Dong because of your influence. Damao, to be honest, when it comes to educating children, you are not as good as Sha Zhu. He Dong is polite and cares for his sister. I am not belittling your son, but he is not as good as He Dong.

It's okay for you to be a little naughty at such a young age. You are the only one who is close to me. What I said may be a little harsh, but it is the truth. Don't mind it, Damao."

"Shanhe, you are right. It's all because I spoiled him too much. But what can I do if I don't spoil him? I only have this one son. It's not like you and Shanhu, who each have several. I also found out last time that this kid is full of lies. He dares to lie to my face, but I can't bear to do anything to him."

"If a young tree is not pruned, it will not grow straight. Education must start from childhood. It is easier to change when a child is young, but it will be harder to change when he grows up. There must be someone who plays the good cop and the bad cop in the family. There must be someone to be afraid of, otherwise there will be lawlessness. In my family, they are afraid of Jingru. When Jingru gets angry, they will really beat her."

"I want to, too. You know Yuanyuan's temper. He can never be fierce. I wanted to be a strict father, but I couldn't be cruel when I was right in front of him. Not to mention his grandparents. They only have one child like him. They are a treasure in their hands."

"In that case, you can do whatever you want. I can't do anything about it."

"The old lady of the Jia family is ill, did you know that?" Xu Damao asked

"Impossible. Jia Zhang is so strong, how could she be sick?"

"Really? I always go to the Central Courtyard. I've run into Qin Huairu carrying medicine several times. She said her mother-in-law was sick. The whole Central Courtyard was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine. Didn't you smell it?"

"I smelled Chinese medicine. I thought it was from Auntie's house. Auntie is in poor health and always takes Chinese medicine. But it seems to be real. I haven't seen Jia Zhang for several days." Zhao Shanhu said

"I pass by the central courtyard every day, but I didn't notice it. Jia Zhang just took some painkillers, and I didn't hear that she had any health problems." Zhao Shanhe thought it shouldn't be like this, there was no such part in the play, Jia Zhang's lifespan almost outlived her grandson.

"No, it can't be Aunt Jia. Now that you mention it, I remember that I ran into her a few days ago. She was with an old man carrying a medicine box. If she was sick, how could she bring the old man home for treatment?"

"When did you meet him?"

"Just last week, brother, you forgot. Duoduo was not feeling well at that time, and I asked you for leave to go home. I saw Jia Zhang in a hurry from the window."

"Jia Zhang is fine, and Qin Huairu has been working. Who in their family is sick?" Zhao Shanhe thought it was Banggeng. Could it be that Banggeng secretly ran back? But he felt that it was impossible. The place he found had inconvenient transportation. Besides, if the educated youth came back secretly, the educated youth office would have come to look for him. But he hasn't seen anyone from the educated youth office until now.

Zhao Shanhe had no idea that everyone in that place had fled, so who would care whether the educated youth escaped or not? Because of this judgment, he avoided the correct answer.

"Could it be that the two widows found a man and hid him secretly?"

"Da Mao, you really are a person who daydreams. You have a very rich imagination."

"Brother, I think what Damao said is right. It is really possible. I saw Qin Huairu carrying a urine pot to empty it this afternoon."

Damn, it is really possible that Banggeng has returned. Apart from Jia Zhang, the only person Qin Huairu can serve is his precious son. Now that Jia Zhang is fine, it can only be Banggeng. Otherwise, how could Jia Zhang ask a doctor to come to her house? If it was Banggeng, everything would make sense.

"I don't think she's keeping a man. It could be that Bang Geng is back. If she's keeping a man, who's keeping him? It's unlikely to be Jia Zhang. She didn't find one when she was young, so it's impossible for her to keep another one when she's old.

If it was Qin Huairu, Jia Zhangshi would not have gone to see a doctor. You all know Jia Zhangshi's character. There is only one person who can make Jia Zhangshi call a doctor and Qin Huairu carry a urinal at the same time. I can't think of anyone else except Bang Geng.

But there is one thing I can’t understand. If Banggeng escapes back, the Youth League Office will come to our house.”
